The emergency dental problems that affect people can put them at risk for losing teeth. However, by accessing the right care, this kind of trouble can be avoided. At our El Paso, TX endodontic treatment office, we are prepared to provide services that can save teeth at risk for being extracted. This is because we can access portions of the tooth structure that are difficult to reach and treat at a general practice.

If you need help because there is a lack of structural support for a restoration after treatment, we can also provide services that address this concern. (more…)
Restorative Dentistry And Endodontics
Restorative dental work is often addressed at a general dentist’s office, but there are times when more advanced services need to take place to make sure that a tooth’s needs are successfully addressed. In these situations, the right treatment will prevent a course of treatment that relies on extraction and the placement of a permanent prosthetic to give you back your complete smile. At our El Paso, TX endodontic treatment office, we can recommend more involved services that deal with problems within the tooth structure, something that can resolve even serious issues with your oral health without requiring extraction. We can also do work to rebuild the structure when you need extra support to hold a restoration. (more…)

Oral Health Recovery Through An Apicoectomy
If you have a serious dental problem, what are your chances of restoring your oral health while still preserving your vulnerable tooth? At our El Paso, TX endodontic treatment office, we can provide services that take on difficult and hard-to-reach problems, which means you are less likely to need an unhealthy tooth extracted.

When Tooth Trouble Calls For Retreatment
Once you arrange the appropriate restorative dental work for an unhealthy, aching tooth, you should be able to put oral health concerns and discomfort behind you. Unfortunately, there are times when problems persist after a procedure, as well as circumstances where new issues can arise at a later date. In these situations, retreatment can be necessary. This procedure tends to a tooth that has already undergone a root canal so that a new problem can be addressed, or to make sure the initial issue with your tooth is properly managed. Our El Paso, TX endodontic treatment office has advanced imaging technology that we can use to evaluate your tooth and make sure the correct care is provided when you need this service. (more…)
How Apicoectomies Treat Teeth Roots
There are sometimes problems with our teeth that require treatment at their roots. This can create difficulties for care, as this makes the “root” of your oral health problem harder to access. Fortunately, the right procedure can address the problem and help you preserve your full smile. Through conservative oral surgery, we can evaluate and treat issues with portions of the tooth structure normally out of reach. One common treatment performed to help in these circumstances is an apicoectomy, which involves the careful removal and replacement of a root end to remove an unhealthy part of a tooth. At our El Paso, TX endodontic treatment office, we can recommend this service when you find yourself in need of advanced treatment and hope to avoid an extraction and replacement of the tooth with a prosthetic.

Endodontics And Restorative Dentistry
Our teeth are strong enough to bite and chew through a wide array of foods without difficulty, which lets us maintain a varied diet and avoid painful injuries. Unfortunately, they are not so strong that they never take on damage. When serious injuries occur, or when dental decay progresses and causes an infection, endodontic treatment can be required. Our El Paso, TX endodontic treatment office can offer more involved restorative procedures that tend to problems that can be difficult for your general dentist to access. Because of this, we can do work to save a tooth that is at risk for being lost. Our services include treatments that effectively build on damaged tooth structure to make sure you can support a permanent crown. (more…)
